Badger's P14
We have a feeling that guns, being made of steel, are extremely magnetic. They attract each other. That's the only reason we can think of for yet another gun materialising in our safe. This time it's a Winchester made Enfield P14 in .303 - we already have one in 7.62x51.
We're rather taken by its looks, and the sights - they seem pretty well made ! Is it the case that they were more accurate than contemporary SMLEs ?

A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools!!

As Sim G has so succinctly posted previously -

Re: Badger's P14
I would certainly say yes the average P14 seems a lot more accurate than a SMLE of the same period.meles meles wrote: Is it the case that they were more accurate than contemporary SMLEs ?
